May Designs Review

Wayyyyyy back in the day (sophomore year of college), the girl who sat next to me in my financial literacy lecture had a May Designs planner. I was a little obsessed with it, but already had a planner. Over the next few years, I kept revisiting the site, but never bought anything, despite loving all things notebooks and monograms. I finally pulled the trigger a few weeks ago, when I fell in love with their stripe/floral cover and wanted to make an address book out of it (101 in 1001 goal). I threw in the other one so that I could have a notebook that fits in my planner.

The notebooks themselves are delightful - soft bound, but very sturdy feeling, with bright colors and lots of potential personalizations. I love the dot graph especially - so useful for all different kinds of notebooks, but they do have everything from baby books to simple lines. And I love that there are covers for all different occasions - some super girly, some more understated.

In terms of experience, May Designs couldn't have been better. My order, despite being predicted at taking 2 weeks, arrived in about 8 days. The packaging is adorable, and I love all the nice touches. I also had a conversation with their customer service that was great. I had a question about pricing and a rep got back to me within 24 hours and was great. Overall, big thumbs up on the whole process and the books are fabulous.

Hi! I'm Kyle, an MSW candidate in Boston. I spent 4 years working at a boarding school before going back for my master's with the hope of working in schools afterward. I love yoga, reading, my dog (even though she's the devil) and going to bed at 8pm.
This space is an outlet for me as I balance full-time school, fieldwork and part-time work!
